Restaurants in Oswego

“Wife and I ate here for the first time today. Absolutely delicious. Will be back many more times. Best burger in the area by a LONG shot. So many options. Delicious toppings. Sidewinder fries are great. Service was excellent and friendly. Cherry empanada dessert was delicious 🤤”

“we saw it on tik tok and thought what the hell... highly recommend.. great customer service! tasty food for something new..”

“We walked in off the street, didn't expect much but we were absolutely blown away by the environment, the service and the layout of the establishment. The Philly cheesesteak sandwich with au jus and the breaded chicken tenders blew our mind. Our bartender was Ashley, she gave us impeccable service engaging and even when she wasn't there, every other bartender was very engaging and attentive. I don't know why this place is not packed at all times. I've reviewed hundreds of places around the world and this is one of my favorites.”

“the food is bright clean and fresh. very satisfying and I will definitely be back”

“our party of 4 was seated right away, and we ordered and had our food within 5 minutes. Food & service were excellent !”

“We held our daughter's engagement party at Neat on Saturday night - and we were so very pleased. The staff was absolutely amazing, the room was beautiful and the food was delicious! I can’t thank their team enough!!”

“Ordered from the Oswego location and it was amazing! Will be back often!”

“Great food & great service!!!”

“This place has the best food and friendly atmosphere. A++++”

“Visiting family from out of state and stopped here for supper. Was immediately greeted by staff who were welcoming and attentive. Ordered the chicken fajitas and throughly enjoyed them. Would highly recommend Taco Melon to everyone.”

“I would say stick to the wings. we tried to pizza which was not cheap and it was so thick the middle of the pizza was super doughy. Pretty upset as i wpuld have just got more wings or tried something else”

“Had a cup of the homemade chili and a phenomenal bacon cheeseburger the day after thanksgiving for lunch. Holly and Dawn are always attentive and pour great mixed drinks. Love the Inn!!”

“Our server, Katlin was great. The ambience was nice. Nice modern decor. Music in the background, but still able to talk to each other at your table. My burger was great! I had the California burger. Very tasty, juicy and made well. Fries were not over cooked or over salted. This was a place I was going to pass on, but I am so glad I didn’t.”

“Love this spot! I'm a fan of the wine, the atmosphere, and the people running the place! Perfect location right in the heart of downtown. They often have live music. And if you're not into wine, they have got you covered. They have beer too, and often have a local craft brew option or two available.”

“My bestie and I have fallen in love with the atmosphere, the amazing food and delicious fall coffee flavors!! ♥️ Highly recommend the maple cinnamon cold brew as well as the blackberry. Baristas were great as well! A gem for Oswego.”

“Stopped by this place for bubble tea. Conveniently located close to Oakton Community College's Skokie campus!”

“Very cute shop in the quaint downtown. The room we sat in was in the back and a bit dark and cold but felt like we were in a historic home, not corporate Starbucks — so that’s a win! My tea was delicious and there were a lot to choose from. The baked goods were beautiful too.”

“My daughter brought me here for the first time. Staff was friendly, drink was AMAZING!! And the atmosphere was quite nice. Sat and drank our drinks watching customers come and go. We will be back.”

“freaking love this place”

“This is my favorite Olive Garden!! Food is always good and the service is excellent!”

“todo muy bien, excelente!!”

“Pastor burrito was a fantastically greasy, savory indulgence. Very pleased they gave us plenty of salsa in bottles to use generously on all the food, that's A+ for a Mexican restaurant. Tortilla chips were a little thicker than I prefer, but overall a satisfying meal.

Would definitely consider coming back if I'm ever in the area, but probably wouldn't go out of my way - just a little too pricey for the portion. But they have plenty of options on the menu, so I'm open to it.

I shan't levy my Indiana prejudices against the higher pricing of Illinois at the door of Mi Rancho, but I'd be hard pressed to pay more than $12 for a burrito dinner again, even in this economy.”

“Great food, good rotating menu and very friendly staff”

“This place is delicious They have a large array of items and are the sweetest!! Everything was so good Go get some!!”

“We love this place! Quality custard, a good variety of toppings, and friendly service.”

“Scooters in Oswego is the BEST! Every time I come I’m greeted with enthusiasm and smiles. Sam, Hailey, Bella, and everyone else I get to see everyday truly make my day every time. They make my coffee perfect each time. Truly the best part of my day!!! Highly recommend stopping in and trying if you haven’t yet!”

“Was at the rustic fox today. Purchased the gf chocolate chip cookies. They were delicious. However the owner who was selling them was on the phone the entire time. Had to ask how much the cookies were. He said what kind of gf cookie was it then gave me the price. I purchased the cookies. He couldn’t even say thank you since he was on the phone. I thought that was pretty rude. Poor customer service”

“Delicious food and great service”

“We come to Dosbros on 71 in oswego probably 2x week, 5 star+ PEROID!you walk into an establishment so clean you can literally eat off the floor! The man always behind the counter Mano is always there ,never see anyone else. You never know if he is having a bad day because he always smiles and is extremely polite,he s proud of what he serves. The food- we always get the bowls! Freshly made in front of you, several great options, for what you pay you can get 2 meals out of 1 bowl they are that big!for the picky people that say the food is cold- well use your brain!!when you add cold toppings such as sour cream, cheese etc...put 2and 2 together!, when we get our food to go and only travel 5 minutes from there, the food is still fresh and the meat and such is the perfect eating temperature!overall we support this establishment and want to pass the word out to the community and see it keep going strong.”

“Love their chicken fingers, the sauce & cole slaw (the bread usually goes to the birds outside) the fries tend to be a bit salty. I've since starting asking for unsalted fries, sweet tea is delicious too.”

“Absolutely 5 stars. The servers here are so nice and I always come back here, the food is always yummy and I look forward to it when I walk into the door, we also can't forget that you get a balloon!

Honestly I would give 6 stars if I could, good job to the people who manage this restaurant!”

“The waiter is always welcoming and friendly, he always recognizes my husbands and I and no matter if he’s going to be our waiter or not he always gets our drinks I hate that u don’t remember his name but he’s very tall skinny white man”

“Our server was very nice and the food was delicious as always. I had the garlic French dip with tater tots and my son had the triple decker grilled cheese. Great flavor.”

“The facilities are very nice and clean. Some of the staff are kind and answer any questions you may have. I love all the promotions they offer and would recommend Lacey's to anyone looking to have a fun time!”

“Everything I have had so far here tastes great, and the staff is quite friendly! The prices are a bit high ($8 for a milkshake?), but I suppose that's the price you pay for a qualoty, ice cream joint. I will say they are good about packing scoops into cups if you take something to go.”

“Great, authentic food and drinks with friendly service!”

“Great place!! Owner and all employees are the BEST!! 🥳”

“Tried it on a whim and glad we did. The food was full of flavor. No doubt, it will end up being one of our favorite spots for casual dining, and tasty Mexican food. We’ll be back.”

“being first generation Italian you need to know I'm a picky eater especially when it comes to pizza & pasts. This is our new go to place, it tastes just as good as mine & the gnocchi make my knees shake! heaven! I recently found out I have cancer thank God at least well have good food to eat! Trust me this place is what italian cooking is all about!”

“Great food and great customer service. They accidentally messed up my wife's sweet potato (put loaded baked potato toppings on it) and they promptly fixed it. The restaurant was packed on a Friday night, but the staff did a great job.”

“We decided to order from Culver’s tonight to contribute to the fundraiser for LWC. We ordered on the app to make to faster. When we arrived at the restaurant there were cars everywhere! It was crazy. We couldn’t even get close to the area for pre orders. We sat there in the long line, and my phone rang. It was one of the kids that works there asking us if we were there and what car we were in. I felt bad having him walk all the way out to our car, we were pretty far from the restaurant and it was snowing kind of hard. But the young man came out to our car with our order. He had a huge smile on his face and apologized we had to wait! I was very impressed with him, and wish I would have gotten his name. These poor kids trying to direct traffic and run orders and all with smiles on their faces. The managers should be very proud of this crew!”

“clean and friendly. good food”

“My work ordered this pizza the other night and I think it’s the most delicious pizza I’ve ever eaten.”

“First time eating here. Found out they had gluten free options. I ordered the lemon shrimp scampi with gluten free noodles. Everything about this dish was over the top. Noodles were cooked perfectly, you could see the parmasan cheese and fresh herbs in sauce. Shrimp not overcooked. I devoured it.
I will so much be back.”

“pd;s The place to go for a nice quiet drink. Great bartender, really knows how to make a good Bloody Mary. Located in Oswego ,Il. at Mason Square.”

“Normally don't visit places like this but was looking for a quick cup of coffee. The place is really cozy and the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming! Even if you don't play the slots it's a nice place to sit and chat!”

“Awesome food, and Free chips and salsa, when you sign up!”

“One of my favorite michocana locations!
Always clean and the lady is always nice!
The Elote in a cup is always filled up good! They always layer it twice 😁😁”

“I ordered thru door dash because they seemed to have great prices compared to similar restaurants. I was a little hesitant since I didn't know what to expect but everything was great! The curly fries were good, I even air fried leftovers the next day. The wings were good too, I love that they have a variety of sauces. I will definitely order again”

“Clean restaurant, super friendly staff (11/15 am shift) and they have books and coloring supplies. Such an above and beyond gesture.
Food was slow but delicious!”

“Nathan made me #13 that was out of this world! Great service! Highly recommend!”

“Got the twice cooked pork (323), and it was wonderful! They were super fast. Food was hot and fresh. Will be returning!”

“The waitress was so amazing today when my taco salad came out wrong. I ordered the salad with the shredded beef but when it came to the table it had ground beef. I told her not to worry about it that I would eat it because I like the ground beef and decided to change it up today by getting the shredded beef. A few minutes later the waitress came out with a plate of the shredded beef free of charge.”

“Ordered at the drive thru and took it home. Beef was awesome. One large fry is enough for 2+ people. Very impressed. Dare to say one of the best beef sandwiches I’ve had in a long time. Will go back for sure.”

“Service was amazing! Very welcoming! Thank you very much to Kristina for the great customer service always checking up to see if everything was going well! The whole front staff was very welcoming! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! FOOD WAS AMAZING!!!!!!”

“DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. HORRIBLE SERVICE, AND THEY CHARGE AND MAKE YOU PAY FOR ITEMS YOU DIDN'T NOT ODER. MANAGERS ARE RUDE!! DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE. LOST 25$ AND GOT NO FOOD. WAY BETTER PLACES WITH BETTER SERVICE!!”

“This place is really exceptional! The food is great and reasonable priced and has to be the best Pepe's I've ever been to. The service is outstanding especially Jerry! Been here a few times and never disappoints.”

“Ordered a deep dish with sausage it was very filling with a thick crust. Sauce was mild and sausage was lightly spiced. Cheese was plentiful and generous. One slice was enough two was very filling. A good pizza.”

“Food was great but the person that worked at the drive thru window that day wasnt very nice. Got to the window she handed me the drink then squeezed my cup so hard that the lid popped off and the iced coffee spilled all over my hand and my car window. She didn't offer me any napkins. Until another female staff switched over with her and heard me asking for some napkins.”
